Chapter 794
Feeling that his divine power was getting lower and lower now, Lin Xuan found a cloth to cover Aquatic before completely disappearing, and returned to the statue tiredly.
When Shuisheng woke up on the second day, he found that Lin Xuan, who was drinking with him, had long since disappeared.
But a piece of paper was left on the table, pressed under an empty wine glass.
Shuisheng pulled out the paper and glanced at it, leaving a line of words on it.
After reading this line, Shuisheng shook his head with a wry smile, his eldest brother even remembered to go on a long trip and said that he would see you today next year.
“See you today next year.”
Shuisheng said to himself, picked up the unopened wine on the table, and dug a pit under the peach tree of the land temple and buried it.
Wait until the next year today to meet friends, dig it out and drink it all.
This year, the aquatic creatures who returned to their hometown were not able to open a martial arts hall.
With a small skill, he is still far from the word hero, and he can’t withstand the kicking of others.
Fortunately, the old man reached out and was willing to take some money to fund him to open an inn.
For the sake of his wife and children, Shuisheng had to give up his childhood dream and choose to make his family’s life better.
The inn is opened in the hometown of his wife and children.
Because of the good location, plus the old man knows a lot of friends.
Business at the inn is quite good.
The ranger who once roamed the rivers and lakes has become a sleek innkeeper.
Under his hard work every day, the family is getting better and better, and the family has changed from one child to three children.
The only constant is that the two still get together once a year.
It’s a big drunk every time.
Every time he woke up, Shuisheng found that his eldest brother was as good as ever.
Already accustomed to it, he did not think about anything, but spent some money to repair the land temple.
For him, this seemed to be his first home.
Because the land temple was renovated, many people recognized aquatic life.
Seeing that the little Hanako who used to steal offerings in the land temple is now decent.
Instead, many people began to come to the land temple to burn incense.
These insignificant incense burns were to Lin Xuan, the land lord who was almost unworshiped.
It’s very important.
In the collision of wine glasses year after year, aquatic life began to bless, and the once resolute face became kind and smooth.
Lin Xuan also had to make himself look older.
The only constant is the love between the two old friends, who always talk about the past when they get together every year.
For old friends, the time spent with each other is the most mellow wine under the sun.
The last time the two met.
Shuisheng is already in an old state, and he is accompanied by his ten-year-old grandson.
Now the aquatic family can be regarded as a rich family, and after opening an inn to make money, and then doing business, it really made a lot of money.
Because of the poor health, aquatic walking even needs the support of grandchildren.
Lin Xuan is also the image of a white-haired old man.
“Grandpa, grandma said that you may not drink too much.”
I saw that there was already a jar of wine on the table.
The little grandson hurriedly reminded.
“Don’t worry, I only have a small drink with Grandpa Lin.”
Shui Sheng touched his little grandson’s head with a smile and looked at Lin Xuan and said, “This kid is now helping his grandmother stare at me every day.”
“Very well, come, have a snack.”
Lin Xuan touched a rough snack and handed it to the child.
The two no longer drank as before, but raised their glasses until they ordered, and more often chatted.
Wait for a drink to finish.
Shui Sheng hesitated for a moment and then put down his wine glass and asked.
“Brother, I have a question for you.”
“Say.”
“A few years ago, I went to the mountain to burn incense and talked with an old Taoist elder, and the old Taoist elder said that the immortals are different from us mortals, they eat incense, if there is no incense, the immortals will starve to death, you are well-informed, this should not be a lie, right?”
Lin Xuan was already expected, after so many years of getting along, if Shuisheng couldn’t see anything, it would be wrong.
He then nodded.
“If that’s the case, I understand, then the old brother will mention more of my grandson in the future.”
Shuisheng grinned and let his grandson help him slowly leave the land temple.
After walking out for a while, Shuisheng stopped, looked back at the land temple from afar, and his eyes were full of reluctance.
This year’s winter solstice.
The aquatic lamp ran out of oil and left safely surrounded by his family.
The last words he left behind were to tell his little grandson to remember the agreement with him.
Every year for himself, he went to meet the immortal who accompanied him all his life.
In the fourth month after Shuisheng’s departure, it was the day when the two saw each other once a year.
This time in place of Shuisheng is his youngest grandson Yanwen.
Lin Xuan, who was waiting in the Land Temple, was not surprised to see Yanwen coming alone.
After Shui Sheng left, the soul came to the Land Temple.
The two met for the last time, but could not have another drink.
“Grandpa Lin, grandpa asked me to come over to greet you, and then ask you some books to ask.”
Yanwen held a book of sages and walked up to Lin Xuan and asked.
Look at Yanwen’s immature face.
Lin Xuan was like seeing the little beggar in rags back then, and he walked into the land temple hungry in order to steal a bite of offerings to survive.
This made him slightly disappointed.
Fortunately, Shuisheng is gone, but he left his descendants to accompany him.
Lin Xuan immediately pointed out Yanwen’s knowledge.
After completing his studies, Yanwen cleaned the land temple again, laid out the offerings he brought, and then respectfully burned a piece of incense before leaving the land temple.
With the departure of aquatic life.
His heirs split up their families.
Without aquatic funding, there were not many pilgrims in the land temple, and the land temple began to return to its previous bleak situation.
Fortunately, Yanwen comes to incense every once in a while, and occasionally brings some friends over.
Lin Xuan and he see each other once a year.
Just like back then, watching this child grow up little by little, meet a girl he likes, marry a wife, have children, and start a family.
It’s just that his golden body is getting more and more worn.
The divine power is also getting weaker and weaker.
Some memories of the past have also begun to become blurred.
By the time Yanwen was middle-aged, it would take him about three years to accumulate divine power before the two sides could meet.
After talking with Yanwen, Lin Xuan learned that the world was already in chaos, and the rebels were about to fight.
He wants to leave here with his wife and family and take refuge in a safer Kyoto.
After saying this, Yanwen let out a long sigh, and his face was a little guilty.
It’s time to break the agreement with my grandfather.
“Safety is important, leave early, change later.”
Lin Xuan smiled and urged Yanwen to leave quickly.
Yanwen sighed, finished putting a piece of incense in the land temple and hurriedly left.
The pedestrians on the streets outside are sad, and many large houses have been emptied.
The month after Yanwen left, the rebels entered the city and looted it for three days.
There were even rebels who ran to the Land Temple in search of money.
After taking away everything that could be valuable, they set a fire in the temple of the land.
On this day, the land temple was burned, and Lin Xuan’s statue was also insecure.
Having exhausted his divine power, he also ushered in the end of being a land god.
He didn’t complain.
If he survives any longer, he is afraid that he will forget even the aquatic life.
Just as it was about to dissipate, a phrase sounded in his ears: “If there is an afterlife, then be a god?”
“Reluctantly.”
PS: How come there is always a saying that I am not crazy if I am not my own, to be honest, I and Ning Guang Night Palace Naxida Xin Haiying Bao are old husbands and wives, some things really do not need to hang on the lips every day, and also say that I have kidney deficiency, this is not a rumor, your wife is more you also have kidney deficiency.
